A recent study lead by John Steele, an emergency physician at Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk revealed that bed bugs would die after biting people who were treated with Merck & Co’s (MRK) Stromectol.

Recently I had an interview with a prominent West Coast property manager. We were discussing some of the most recent “challenges” facing property managers. The conversation quickly shifted toward bed bugs and pest control. More and more residents and managers are trying to find healthy alternatives to toxic pesticides when attempting to eradicate the ever-resilient bedbug.

In New York Gov. Paterson just signed into law the Bedbug Disclosure Act which requires landlords to tell prospective residents if there is a one-year history of bedbugs – now renters have the right to know about past bedbug infestations.
